TL;DR Summary

GTA Online's Kortz Center heist launches in July on all platforms. You need an Art Studio in your Mansion to take part, and Rockstar is running prep events with bonus cash, discounts, and a 40% GTA$ boost on Shark Cards.

Rockstar Games has confirmed a new heist coming to Grand Theft Auto Online in July, and this time the target isn't a bank or a casino. It's an art gallery. The Kortz Center, a major fixture of the Los Santos art world sitting up in the hills of Pacific Bluffs, is the next big score, and players will be planning a multi-stage operation to clear out its collection.

To get involved, players first need to add an Art Studio to their Mansion property. From there, the job follows a structure familiar to anyone who's run a heist in GTA Online before: scout the location, pick an approach, then execute the plan in stages that cover both breaking in and getting out again with the goods.

Before the heist itself goes live, Rockstar is rolling out a run of preparation content. That includes events offering bonus in-game cash, discounts on the gear and property needed to get set up, and a Fine Art Collector program that hands out rare items tied to the art theme. Anyone planning to buy a property from Prix Luxury Real Estate to use as a heist base should also know that GTA+ subscribers will get a $2,000,000 discount on those purchases. Separately, everyone, subscriber or not, can grab a temporary 40% bonus on GTA$ when buying Shark Cards.

GTA Online Kortz Center heist: Bonuses and discounts breakdown.

Alongside the heist announcement, Rockstar is also pushing a wider upgrade for the game itself. Anyone who owns GTA V on PS4, or the digital version on Xbox One, can move up to the PS5 or Xbox Series X/S version at no extra cost. That upgrade brings noticeable technical improvements, lets players carry over both their Story Mode and Online progress without starting over, and unlocks features that weren't available before, including Hao's Special Works vehicle upgrades and Career Progress rewards.

The Kortz Center is officially your next target, and Rockstar is handing out free next-gen graphics updates and 40% Shark Card bonuses to help you fund your new Art Studio headquarters before July.

PC players aren't left out either. Anyone running the Legacy version of GTA V and GTA Online on PC can switch to the Enhanced version for free, picking up PC-specific graphical upgrades like ray traced ambient occlusion and global illumination along the way. On top of that, GTA+ members who haven't played through GTA V's Story Mode yet can now access it directly through the GTA+ Games Library, alongside GTA Online itself.

All of this is positioned as a buildup to the Kortz Center heist, which is set to launch in July across PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC.
